If you have a wrong answer, it's up to you to try to work out what's going wrong, supplying your own test inputs.
WA usually means you passed the sample given in the question. So, practise finding the edge cases in your code. 1) Do you cope with the full range of inputs? The sample input might use small numbers that fit in an int where the real data set could go larger 2) Have you noticed an edge case that the sample input doesn't cover? Devise your own test input that tests that case and see where things go. 3) Have you assumed that, for example, of two given inputs that A will always be smaller than B? Will your code cope if A is in fact larger? 4) Have you a solution that works for all positive numbers but does something weird around 0 or negative numbers? Which problem is ir precisely that you're getting WA for?
